Welcome back to the Athlete in Training.
Here I am still running and still wanting to change and improve.
I've been working with Ami Porter and I have taken her Clear and Clarity 28 day programme which has been a huge help to me.
I have been lucky to have had Ami as a friend for several years now. When I was teaching she was a great friend and ear when stress took over my life and since then she has trained as a Life Coach.
I am looking to change my career - I currently work for McVities and I am lucky enough that I can change to working part time and I have asked for this to happen.
My goal is to train as a swimming teacher!
As I can now work part time I want to do a job that makes me happy and that feels good. I loved teaching and working with the kids and I have always liked helping people. As someone who also loves exercise when I saw that there was an opportunity to work at the pool it seemed ideal.
So, thanks to Ami I have been making plans.
My short term plan was to undertake some online training - this is something I can do whilst at work during the downtime! I have now complete two course with the Institute of Swimming. - Job Done!
Next I need to start working part time - my request is in and I am still waiting for an outcome. Once I am working part time I can do the required 20 hours of volunteering at the pool.
Finally, assuming all is good!, I will quit working here at UB and start working at the pool. They will then put me on the required courses and I can start my swimming teacher journey.
One of the great bonuses of this job is that I get membership of the gym too. This means I can work part time and use the gym so have fun with my job and get fitter at the same time. The pool is also a little bit closer than where I work now so I can also continue to run commute. It all sounds so positive and perfect I can't wait for it to happen.
So with all of that to come I am resurrecting this blog to document my journey.
